I'm going to address a few issues that I think warrant special attention for Christians in this moment. And if you, Christian, are a stout Republican, your engagement is needed more than ever in this moment. Let me share a few of the things that are weighing on my mind that have happened so far during Trump's second term, and why I think Christians should care and take action.

2022 Books Review

It's that time of year - W2s and 1098s are filling folks' mailboxes.

This post began as a YouTube comment on a video from November 2, 2018, which I saw recently when it appeared on my newsfeed (embedded below). It morphed from just a response to this particular video into a more broad look at the concept of "social justice." https://youtu.be/UpYFVVEQHQ0 The conversation around social justice is complex, … Continue reading On Social Justice, Sparked by John MacArthur
